Piedmont accelerates lithium plant

摘要

Piedmont Lithium Limited (Perth, Australia) says it is accelerating development of its proposed lithium hydroxide chemical plant in North Carolina, US, targeting production by late 2022. The new timeline will efectively advance the chemical plant’s development in North Carolina’s tin–spodumene belt by one year while deferring the start of construction on its mine and concentrator by a year, which it says will result in “integrated operations from day one.”
